Outstanding comfort. I was skeptical about “sockless” shoes since I’m a really big fan of socks but these shoes actually do feel very comfortable with or without socks. Extremely light and comfortable for walking on hikes, running or even casual wear. I’m also flat-footed and have had issues with most athletic shoes causing pain but I have had zero pain/discomfort with these shoes. Also a very stylish looking shoe. I’m usually right in between 10 and 10 1/2 and usually get 1/2 size larger for athletic shoes. However, with this shoe in particular the 10 1/2 felt like a full size too big and the 10 fit the way a 10 1/2 usually feels. If you are a “tweener” trust me when I say go for the smaller size. Outstanding shoe; would HIGHLY recommend. I’ve got a wobbly ankle caused by running on uneven terrain with my normal running shoes & twisting it real bad once. Since I’ve had these Skechers Mandalay Shoes I haven’t twisted my ankle once! I go running 2-3 times per week. I still lightly tape my ankle as a precaution, but so far I’ve never once twisted it. With my previous running shoes it was a regular occurrence – even while just walking!! I am a big fan of these shoes & look forward to buy some more!! Sketchers please release them in Switzerland!! I can’t find them anywhere!!!

While browsing the stores I’ve come across a Merrell Pesaro style, that I bought for my wife. She didn’t liked the look of these sandals at first sight, but after she put her feet into these comfy little cushions, she felt like she is walking on the clouds.
